Yes, it's a good idea. At least for a few months.

Raise calories by raising carbs slowly, aim to keep your weight stable for about 2 weeks before starting to gain weight at about 2lbs per month. Adding 1-200 calories per day.

because you are moving towards gaining mass. Once you are gaining at about 2lbs a month, stick to that level. Trial and error, no exact formulae etc.

If you jump straight into it from cutting, you could gain a wad of fat. And anyway, you don't know where to jump TO.

You keep going until your monthly average gain is about 2lbs, as he said.
